(like the authorship of the shift report or its position in shift reports section), changing them is not recommended (to keep the taxonomy clear) - the defaults should be OK

Composing (3)

Should you have problems with composition of your

report, e.g., browser crashes (noticed for FF 3.0.12 on SLC5, IE6 on WinXP) you can try one of the following remedies:

Change the editor (to one with less number of features) On shift report composition page select Input format → Full

HTML with TinyMCE

Change the browser Switch to plain-text mode (no formatting available) On shift report composition page click Disable rich text link just

below the shift report text area. You can switch back to rich-text mode clicking Enable rich text link (in the same position on the page)

  • alice-offline-shifts e-group and automatic emailing

alice-offline-shifts e-group will be used for notifications to

Offline Shifters

Shifter's e-mail gets automatically added to the e-group once

they create their first shift report – no manual action required (but you can add yourself to the group if you wish so)

The e-mails of those who have done Offline shifts by now

(current period) are already added to the e-group

Everyone can remove themselves from the e-group (via e-

groups web interface: https://e-groups.cern.ch)

Each time a new shift report is created an automatic

notification will be sent by ALOSHI (sender: aloshi@cern.ch)
